Beijing Radio and Television Station (BRTV), formerly Beijing Media Network (BMN), is a government-owned television network in China. It broadcasts from Beijing. The channel is available only in Chinese. Broadcasts in Beijing are on AM, FM, cable FM, digital radio, digital TV and online.

Beijing Media Network was founded on 16 May 1979. It covers China, Asia and North America. China Central Television was called Beijing Television from 1958 to 1978.

BTV started satellite broadcasts on 1 January 1998, during the drive caused by regional television stations to begin nationwide broadcasting and in line with the government's plan to increase the number of television viewers, percentually, from 85% to 90% by 2000.[1]

In October 2022, BRTV took a minority ownership stake in Kuaishou.[2]
